Lazy (Rainy) Saturday

Every now and then, we all just need to take a day (or two) and just be LAZY! Today has been that day for us. That's not say we haven't been productive... Ashley did get up and go to brunch with a dear friend. I managed to get our taxes filed. And as I sit on my lazy butt writing this, Ashley is at the gym :) So it hasn't been a "wasted" day - it's just been lazy. And the rain outside certainly doesn't help. Or perhaps it does help -- help us be lazy!

I know some of you may be thinking - "Aren't you celebrating your 'lazy' day a bit early?" And based on the popular SNL digital short "Lazy Sunday," yes - we are a day early. But who knows what tomorrow will bring... If you haven't seen the digital short, check it out:

Allow me to explain how it's been a lazy day. I slept in till 10am. Got up and made a delicious breakfast of scrambled eggs and bacon. **I'm pretty sure that if you start your day off with bacon, you're pretty much setting yourself up for a lazy day**

Following my "breakfast of champs" I began working on our taxes. This in itself does not sound like a lazy task, but when you're able to prop yourself up on a comfy chair with a cup of coffee nearby and March Madness on the TV -- it kinda becomes a lazy task.

Upon completing our taxes, Ashley and I were faced with a difficult decision. Should we go to the gym? Or, should we fix some lunch, climb back in bed, and watch our favorite HGTV shows? Hmmm, that's a tough one! I mean, even my lunch was lazy... EASY Mac. The name says it all. I just had to add water, microwave, stir in cheese, and EAT. Not a whole lot to that... So after a couple episodes of House Hunters and Property Virgins, Ashley's conviction to exercise pulled her to the gym. I politely declined. So now I'm back in the same comfy chair watching some more March Madness and looking forward to a relaxed (also read: lazy) night in!

So here's to soup and grilled cheese and a Redbox DVD rental!

Anybody else enjoy the occasional lazy day? What are your favorite lazy day activities?
